The boats ...

[Black Orchid]

An Australian aerial patrol helped save 41 asylum seekers from drowning at sea when their vessel began sinking in the middle of the Indian Ocean 10 days ago as they tried to sail to Australia.

The Australian understands that the boat broke down between Sri Lanka and Australia and began to take on water before being rescued by the Sri Lankan Navy with the assistance of an Australian surveillance aircraft attached to Operation Sovereign Borders.

It is the second boat to have attempted to get to Australia in the past month, having left port during the federal election campaign and the third since March.

It is believed that several other boats also have been detected in recent weeks.

OSB chief Major General Craig Furini confirmed the rescue of the asylum seeker boat on May 23 which was sinking when the Sri Lankan navy found it.

The boat rescue follows the interception last week of another boat in northern Australian waters with 20 Sri Lankan asylum seekers aboard who had left Sri Lanka midway through the Australian Federal election with people smugglers telling potential clients that a change of government would be favourable to them.

Russia had the best solution
